So, he is specifically denying fiduciary duties.

Unless you have a written certification that he agrees to be your fiduciary, I think he will deny it a lawsuit. Any reputable financial advisor who is willing to advise you as a fiduciary will gladly give you a personal letter clearly stating the fiduciary relationship.
Sounds like we have a plant here defending the indefensible.
